Goodie Foodie — Restaurant in Antwerp

Horrible service! I would say shocking! We are from London and I’ve never experience something like that in my entire life. Owner is very rude and disrespectful and we came with our 1 year old son. We were sitting at the table when owner approached us out of nowhere and asked my husband in a very strange, direct manner, if we asked a couple, which were sitting next to us to leave?!!! ( how weirded is that) My husband was shocked by it and answered NO, we didn’t ask no one to leave! Also he said to the owner that it is very strange and inappropriate question to ask, especially in the way she did.

After that owner Carried on! She asked my husband again but WHY did the leave? They were waiting outside for 10 min and they left just like that? Did you ask them to leave?! - she asked again. She also said, I heard you are expecting some friends, that’s why you asked them to leave the table!? ( omg, this is when I kicked off) I tried to explain that yes,I texted my friends when I realised that table next to us is free and invited them to join us. After that couple wetter seated to that table and texted my friends again, saying sorry, table is no longer available. Couple next to us was sitting and looking at the menu, after couple of min that they just left and we were one to blame.

And I’m just wondering, what was owner thinking, when she asked us if we asked that couple to leave?! This couple was waiting outside for 10 min, than they were seated by the member of stuff, they would never leave, even if we asked them to, unless they wasn’t happy about something and changed their mind. Also on the reply below, owned said that we moved table by our self, which is complete lie, member of staff moved it for us.

So reply below from the OWNER is a complete LIE. Which explains her...

Goodie Foodie is the kind of place that instantly puts you in a good mood—welcoming, charming, and full of light. From the moment I walked in, I could tell that attention to detail was at the heart of every dish and every corner of this lovely spot.

The food? Absolutely stunning, both visually and taste-wise. The avocado toast with poached egg and fresh greens was a burst of flavors that balanced creaminess with the perfect zest of freshness. The crispy toast was just the right level of crunch, and the eggs were delicately poached to ooze at just the right moment, elevating every bite.

The star for me was the beautifully plated open-faced toast with prosciutto, strawberries, cherry tomatoes, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. The combination of sweet and savory elements made it a symphony for the taste buds—each ingredient came together to create something delightful. The pesto sauce on the side was aromatic, with just the right hint of herbaceous richness, tying everything together.

The drinks, too, were crafted with care. The warm cup of tea and freshly squeezed orange juice complemented the meal, adding a soothing note to the vibrant medley of flavors.

Goodie Foodie is not just a café; it’s a small haven where flavors, textures, and presentation come together in harmony. Perfect for a relaxed brunch or a quiet breakfast that feels like a treat. The attention to quality ingredients, the welcoming atmosphere, and the gorgeous presentation make this place...

Looks can be deceiving. And this was the case with these pancakes. They look good but don’t taste that good. The fruit was tasty (as fruit normally is) but the pancake dough was salty. No matter how much maple syrup I added, the salty taste was still very strong. So the sweet and salty combination was not good. Maybe for savoury pancakes this dough works but definitely not for the sweet option. Did not enjoy this breakfast and service was average. On a positive note: the presentation and looks of the dish...
